Porsche and Tag Heuer are taking the subsequent huge step of their long-standing romance, saying a deeper strategic partnership that may kick off with a brand new watch: the Tag Heuer Carrera Porsche Chronograph.
Timepiece followers will inform you that the Tag Heuer Carrera is nothing new, neither is the nomenclature any type of coincidence; each the 911 and the watch sequence derive their names from their respective producer’s racing heritage. The Carrera Porsche Chronograph builds off of that frequent ancestry, to make sure, however it’s successfully only a re-skin of Tag Heuer’s customary Carrera.
That is not a foul factor, although. The usual Carrera is constructed round Tag’s in-house Heuer 02 automated motion, which is nothing to sneeze at. This model is obtainable with a number of distinctive styling parts, from the bezel, to the asphalt-look face remedy. The steering wheel look employed within the exhibition-style case again rounds out the bundle. Like the usual mannequin, the Carrera Porsche Chronograph, packs a 44mm case and an 80-hour energy reserve.
“The dial’s asphalt impact, created particularly for this watch, expresses a ardour for the street, whereas Arabic numerals counsel the numbers on the dashboard of superb Porsche sports activities automobiles,” Porsche’s announcement stated. “The timepiece is offered both on a mushy strap in luxurious calf leather-based and modern stitching that echoes the Porsche inside or on an interlocking bracelet reflecting streamlined racing design.”
Whereas this can be a fairly cool method to launch a “strategic partnership,” we count on there can be lots extra the place this got here from. The Carrera Porsche Chronograph is obtainable on Tag Heuer’s web site (alongside the remainder of the Carrera lineup) with an inventory worth of $5,850.
